Carine Booghs

Carine Booghs studied painting at the Academy of Ostend and specialized in model drawing at the Koksijde Academy. As a creative teacher in the field of education, she stimulates and guides children during their creative expressions.

Her paintings balance on the fine line between seduction and surprise. People and their stories in particular fascinate her. A lost dream that surfaces in silence. A moment of reflection and immobility. A moment in between. The waiting for the next step. As a spectator we mostly see a fragment of the man, woman or child. But we can think about the live, dreams and desires of the person we just met. A mad life, full of beards. A life full of secrets, a memory.
